About Nord Security
Nord Security is a global leader in next-generation cybersecurity, trusted by millions of users worldwide. We build a comprehensive ecosystem of digital privacy and security tools, including our flagship NordVPN, alongside advanced password management, identity protection, and cutting-edge threat prevention software. We are on a mission to simplify complex digital security topics through human, high-quality design, giving people complete control over their digital lives.
About our Design Team
We're a multidisciplinary group of Product designers, UX/UI designers, UX researchers, UX writers, and graphic designers. We're building the future of digital freedom across our cybersecurity products, helping millions of users feel safe and in control online. Our focus is simplifying complex cybersecurity topics through clear, human, and high-quality design. We value ownership, honest feedback, and creative initiative - and we expect everyone here to think, challenge, and take responsibility for their craft.
Your Impact
Shaping how millions experience NordVPN and Nord Security ecosystem while raising the craft and judgment of the designers around you. You'll hold the bar for visual quality across NordVPN’s website assets, mobile marketing, in-app surfaces, and video content, while providing quality assurance and strategic concept-thinking for the Nord Security umbrella brand. Ultimately, you'll build the conditions and mentorship frameworks for your design squad to do their best work.
About the Role
We're looking for a Lead Graphic Designer to set the creative bar for the NordVPN Product Squad while playing a key supporting role for our umbrella brand, Nord Security. This role is 70% hands-on craft and 30% leadership—you'll be deeply involved in execution while coaching, mentoring, and raising the ability of the team around you.
You'll be accountable for whether the squad’s creative output meets the bar, whether marketing trusts our design partnership, and whether our visual strategies drive growth. While your primary focus will be driving dynamic website experiences, mobile marketing campaigns, and video assets for NordVPN, you will also extend your expertise to the Nord Security brand, ensuring top-tier quality assurance, conceptual depth, and mentorship across both scopes. You'll masterfully hold both lines that define graphic design here: brand integrity and performance impact.
Main Responsibilities
Set the visual quality and creative bar across web surfaces, mobile marketing, in-app assets, and video content for our flagship product.
Guide designers through coaching, critique, and setting clear benchmarks for what "good" looks like across digital and motion touchpoints.
Take ultimate responsibility for the creative quality of your squad's output, shifting the culture from pure execution to strategic, high-craft design.
Collaborate with the Brand Design Lead to ensure NordVPN’s digital and mobile assets remain aligned with global brand consistency questions.
Turn marketing objectives into compelling visual narratives for web layouts, app stores, and video formats that respect brand guidelines while capturing attention.
Build the production conditions (file systems, Figma tooling, handoff patterns for web and mobile developers) that let your team launch creative assets at quality and speed.
Dive into high-stakes work, including key website landing pages, core mobile asset frameworks, and defining video asset pipelines that become references for the team.
Integrate generative AI tools ethically into the squad's daily craft to accelerate asset creation and iteration for various digital platforms.
